Ces modernes, auxquels se joindront Pierre Chareau, Eileen Gray, Le Corbusier, les frères Martel, Charlotte Perriand, Jean Prouvé et bien d'autres, militent pour un art fonctionnaliste, sans ornement, destiné au plus grand nombre. Ils auraient tourné le dos aux Décorateurs et à l'artisanat de luxe, incarné par l'Exposition internationale des arts décoratifs et industriels modernes de 1925, pour créer un mouvement en phase avec les besoins de leur époque.

Following World War II, Americans began accumulating more and more goods, spurring a transformation in the field of interior decoration. Storage walls became ubiquitous, often serving as a home's centerpiece. Designers such as Alexander Girard encouraged homeowners to populate their new shelving units with folk art, as well as unconventional and modern objects, to produce innovative and unexpected juxtapositions within modern architectural settings. Playfulness can be seen in the colorful, child-sized furniture by Charles and Ray Eames, who also produced toys. And in the postwar corporate world, the concept of play is manifested in the influential advertising work of Paul Rand.

Modernism, with its powerful aesthetic and compelling philosophical framework, is the twentieth century’s most defining movement in design and the applied arts. International architects and designers such as Alvar Aalto, Marcel Breuer, Eileen Gray, Le Corbusier, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, and Frank Lloyd Wright revolutionized the built world and how we live in it. Their work rejected historical precedents, prioritizing function over tradition, and their experimentation with new forms, materials, and techniques transformed our living spaces and lifestyles and fundamentally changed the way we think about design.
